β¦ Synopsis
The BXD and AKXL panels of recombinant inbred mouse strains have been typed for the F liver protein alloantigen. The structural gene for F liver protein gene (Flp) is placed on the distal part of chromosome 5, between the known markers Bcd-1 and Gus-s. This excludes the possibility that F liver protein is a major histocompatibility complex molecule, and in turn raises a question about the uniqueness of F and certain other proteins as purgers of self-reactivity among T but not B cells. The typed RI strains have then been used for the immunogenetic studies presented in the succeeding article.

Comparative mapping studies in human and mouse have shown that, to date, human Chromosome (Chr) 20 is completely syntenic with distal mouse Chr 2. The structural locus for S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase (EC 3.3.1.1) in human, AHCY, maps to 20 qter-->q13.1, and we report here that the homologous
